Minor tip on the iPhone app store

Earlier I was downloading the AIM App for my iPhone (on the iPhone, not with iTunes) and it kept prompting me for my password, but then kept rejecting it. Turns out that what it wanted was my iTunes Music Store. Once I got that entered, it downloaded the app and then prompted me for my AIM password and everything worked fine. Just FYI.

The app installer and itunes music store are the same but the itunes music store only works of WiFi.

I ran into the same problem downloading the VNC client and a couple other things. After the second time asking for my password - I waiting 10 minutes and tried it again - worked fine. Just wait and retry - it will work.
